Brother SAMURAI said we need to get out more!

So i'm wondering ... how many of us have visited "other" countries.

Under what circumstance were you there, business or pleasure?

If you don't reside in the US, please tell us what country you're in, and where else you've traveled.

Those who have traveled internationally, do have more insight, than those of us who haven't.

I'm one of those who have never left the US.

Where have you been?
